Lady Antebellum’s Hillary Scott has soft spot for goldendoodles

It’s been a dog’s life with LadyAntebellum’s Hillary Scott, whose two miniature goldendoodles, Baker and Hobbs, enjoy the good life when the trio is out on the road.

“They’re the funniest, sweetest. We only got Baker a couple months ago. We weren’t really sure because Hobbs is so used to being on the road. He’s more comfortable out on the road than he is at home. We were just curious to see if they would really get along. And they don’t even know we are in the room half the time. Like they are so obsessed with each other. They just play and play and play and wear themselves out. It’s so cute.”

When asked how she chose that breed, Scott said it was all about size and temperament.

“Hobbs is full grown and he’s 13 pounds and Baker will be about 15 pounds. I am a huge proponent of rescuing animals and think that’s so important and eventually we will do that. But traveling like we do, I just needed to know how big they would be. I needed to know all of that going in instead of going in and getting a sweet, sweet puppy and then it turning into being 100 pounds.”

Of course, the puppies will have some new competition for Hillary’s attention. She and husbandChris Tyrell, Lady Antebellum’s drummer, are expecting their first child this summer.
